I have an SSIS package I just made.
It imports from a txt file, using 'ole db source' container then I have it going thru a 'data conversion' container (it was giving errors without it) then it goes into my 'ole destination' container.
My problem is a get an error when it gets to a date field that has an empty value.
I'm very new to SSIS what kind of a container can I add in my flow to check for these possible empty date fields and then pass in a 'NULL'? (I'm assuming that's what I need to pass)
There will be more then one of these sometimes empty date fields.

You would want Derived Column Transformation. With this you can either add a new column to your Data Flow or Replace the data in the Date Column. In your expression you would, I would think, convert the empty string to NULL.
